Descartes Labs Dynamic Compute API is one of 6 APIs that [Descartes Labs](https://apis.io/providers/descartes-labs/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Dynamic Compute, Raster, Tiles, and Map Algebra.

Dynamic Compute was the Platform's lazy map-computation engine for interactive raster algebra and tile rendering in notebooks. Expressions over imagery products (band math, mosaicking, temporal compositing) were built lazily and evaluated on demand against the compute backend, with results streamed as XYZ map tiles into an ipyleaflet map. Distributed as the separate `descarteslabs-dynamic-compute` package.
